Amazing sound from this mic. I use it mainly for acoustic sessions but have used it with my hair metal band and it still holds up. Would recommend this for any type of music and it looks badass to

Product Review
Proven performance, solidly built, and reasonably priced. I've only had it for a couple of weeks, but I had bought a couple of these Shure mics back in the 70s & 80s, and they are reliable performers that last just about forever, with a great sound for vocals and harmonica. They weigh a bit more than other mics, but if you're looking for a mic that sounds great and can take the punishment of playing live, this is it!

My last SHURE 55SH gave me over 10 years of service (lots of gigs, travel to gigs and the occasional drops). I upgraded to wireless BUT bought this again; this is a GREAT microphone WITH an On/Off switch. It also looks great in photos (photographers love it too).

Shure 55SH II Review
By: Rene from Arlington, TX, Tarrant County
Submitted: 1/31/2011
Solid, good 'ole fashioned from back in the day mic. It has a heavy casing that doesn't "feel" delicate. It also has modern technology so the sound is not too difficult to "shape". I haven't had it for very long, but with proper care and storage, this mic "feels" like it could last forever.
Solid built with a good weight, this mic looks both great and sounds great. This thing will last forever if properly used, maintained, and stored. Can't think of anything I would change. If so, then I would've bought another type or model.
Plug and play. Like all condenser mics; though, you have to have phantom power and a pre-amp specifically for this one to be utilized properly. However, if you bought this mic, then you should have the knowledge how to use it as it isn't a "beginner's" mic.
I have a Behringer PMP3000 and it sounds pretty good coming out of that with an old Peavy 15" black widow cabinet w/out the horn. My girlfriend's voice is a sultry deep and mids tone which sounded really good with this despite no horn/tweeter. For a live open mic jam test, I connected a pre-amp to push the sound and the results far exceeded both our expectations. You could literally feel her voice's natural gutterals. Most mics change a voice or distort it, but this sounded like it had a nice warm natural feel to it.

Your general opinion of this product.
QUALITY:
right wheni opened the package, i knew that this was going to be far cry from the mics i was used to, it was just built better
FEATURES:
the best feature is that it looks so damn cool
EASE OF USE:
it's just about as simple as it gets, plug it in, turn it on and it's good to go
VALUE:
i think that this was well worth $160, especially because XXXX had it for $220, but i don't know how much more i would pay for it
SOUND:
i thought that the mic sounded really good, and it just made my band sound a little better
STYLE:
punk/ska
MUSIC EXPERIENCE:
school jazz band, 2 bands of my own, about 1 and a half years

Shure is where they are because of Mics like this
By: AMS Customer from USA
Submitted: 2/5/2008
Your general opinion of this product.
QUALITY:
Absolutely solid. I still treat it softer than my own guitar, but a solidly built mic.
FEATURES:
Less is more and this has plenty. On/Off switch with a shielded back for live use. Pretty simple.
EASE OF USE:
This is a bit tricky. If you move to the right or left or don't sing directly into it, you lose volume and clarity. But with a little time and practice, you can get the volume on the the sound board adjusted so that is not an issue and you can use those things to your benefit. This mic sounds the sweetest when you're in its grill truckin' away.
VALUE:
The price is a bit high, but most good items are priced high. I must admit I paid the price because of the name and the look and time will tell if the value is there, but Shure has been the defining manufacturers of high quality mics for decades, so I don't see any trouble. Ask me in 5 years after consistent performing and I will have an answer for you. So
